Presearch has been user nodes in closed bata for over a month. But they just reopened node beta testing today. So if you wanted to run a node, but you couldn't because it was closed beta, you will be able to run and test it now.

This is still a beta test on their testnet, so there is no rewards, but once they are done with Tokenomics Engine, the reward system, node operators will receive rewards for running node(s).
I heard that all node testers will receive something... so you might get some PRE tokens for testing this out.

You don't have to be a tech person to run a node, and you don't have to have a powerful computer to do it. You don't even need to run 24/7.

Setting up a node is easy too. Copy and paste these commands and you are good to go.
The one-line command to install everything is as follows (for Linux / Mac):
```
docker stop presearch-node ; docker rm presearch-node ; docker stop presearch-auto-updater ; docker rm presearch-auto-updater ; docker run -d --name presearch-auto-updater --restart=unless-stopped -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --interval 300 presearch-node ; docker pull presearch/node ; docker run -dt --name presearch-node --restart=unless-stopped -v presearch-node-storage:/app/node -e REGISTRATION_CODE=YOUR_REGISTRATION_CODE_HERE presearch/node ; docker logs -f presearch-node
```
On Windows 10, it's the same command, but replace the ";" semicolons with "&" ampersands:
```
docker stop presearch-node & docker rm presearch-node & docker stop presearch-auto-updater & docker rm presearch-auto-updater & docker run -d --name presearch-auto-updater --restart=unless-stopped -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower --interval 300 presearch-node & docker pull presearch/node & docker run -dt --name presearch-node --restart=unless-stopped -v presearch-node-storage:/app/node -e REGISTRATION_CODE=YOUR_REGISTRATION_CODE_HERE presearch/node & docker logs -f presearch-node
```

And also I found this "Presearch University"
https://presearch.gitbook.io/presearch-onboarding/

Information about presearch and how to fun a node and keyward staking and all the stuff you need is there.
So if you are interested in user node, this is a good chance to jump in and get started.
